By Arthur A. Eaglestone & T. A. Lockett. Hardcover w/dustjacket, 159 pages, b&w photos. Published by Charles E. Tuttle & Co., VT, 1973.
'For nearly one hundred years (since the writing of Jewitt) there was no study of the Rockingham Pottery. During that time, the wares slowly established themselves in public estimation; but background knowledge concerning the Brameld family, their relations with Earl Fitzwilliam, the Pottery’s patron, and their adventures in porcelain, was very limited indeed.
This work included, for the first time, much unpublished material from the Wentworth papers; a full story of the Brameld’s venture in all aspects. In addition it contains a comprehensive and detailed survey of the Pottery's production in earthenware and porcelain. For a long period a common practice has been to ascribe to Rockingham, wares certainly not made at the Pottery. Thus, with a full list of markings, and other relevant information, this book attempts to clarify that situation.
In good condition, some foxing on the edges of the textblock, 2 discolored areas on the back cover. Interior pages lightly age-toned but unmarked.
